It was the golden season. I could see the yellow
leaves dancing in the cool wind. I felt lonely and life is uninteresting. But
one day, the sound of a violin came into my ears. I was so surprised that I ran
out to see where it was from. A young girl, standing in the wind, was lost in
playing her violin.
I had never seen her before. The music was so
wonderful that I forgot who I was.
Leaves were still falling. Every day she played the
violin in the same place and I was the only listener. It seemed that I no
longer felt lonely and life became interesting. We didn't know each other, but
I thought we were already good friends.
One day, when I was listening, the sound suddenly
stopped. The girl came over to me.
"You must like violin." she said.
"Yes. And you play very well. Why did you
stop?" I asked.
Suddenly, a sad expression appeared on her face and I
could feel something unusual.
"I came here to see my grandmother, but now I
must leave. I once played very badly. It is your listening every day that has encouraged
me." she said.
"In fact, it is your music that has given me
those meaningful days." I answered. "Let us be friends."
The girl smiled and I smiled.
I never heard her play again in my life. Only thick
leaves were left behind. But I will always remember the girl. She is like a
dream; so short, so bright that it makes life beautiful.
There are many kinds of friends. Some are always with
you, but don't understand you. Some say only a few words to you, but are close
to you. I shall always think of those golden days and the girl with the violin.
She will always bring back the friendship between us. I know she will always be
my best friend.
